Relative glomerular hyperfiltration in primary aldosteronism.
Experimental and clinical data suggest that primary aldosteronism (PA) may be associated with cardiovascular hypertrophy and fibrosis, in part independent of the BP level. Whether PA may also result in specific deleterious effects on the kidneys was less studied. In 25 patients with tumoral PA, renal studies (urinary excretion of proteins, GFR, and effective renal plasma flow [ERPF], as clearan...
متن کاملEstimated glomerular filtration rate.
The recent article about estimated glomerular filtration rate (GFR) by Levey and colleagues (1) is remarkable. The authors suggest that the new equation may still have some bias and especially may have less precision in patients with GFRs greater than 60 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 . This is even more important if the GFR is greater than 90 mL/min per 1.73 m 2 . In the paper's Methods section, Levey an...
متن کاملFactors Other than the Glomerular Filtration Rate That Determine the Serum Beta-2-Microglobulin Level
BACKGROUND β2-microglobulin has been increasingly investigated as a diagnostic marker of kidney function and a prognostic marker of adverse outcomes. To date, non-renal determinants of β2-microglobulin levels have not been well described. Non-renal determinants are important for the interpretation and appraisal of the diagnostic and prognostic value of any endogenous kidney function marker. M...
متن کاملGlomerular filtration rate, cardiovascular risk factors and insulin resistance.
The aim of this paper was to study the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), its changes with age, and its association with systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic BP (DBP), indicators of obesity, dyslipemia, insulin resistance and inflammation on a random population sample. BP, weight, size and waist circumference (WC) were recorded at home. Fasting morning blood samples were analys...
